Bit short. Carbon bends. You'll find most materials have an elastic and plastic deformation phase. This particular Italian frame entered the plastic phase over a pot hole. Not good.

Isn't the plastic phase actually snapping rather than bending. It would bend in the elastic phase wouldn't it?
Anyway, you stick to your theories, the rest of us can ride carbon as safely as any other frame materials...
